Welp that is it for me.
The game is insanely boring as it is, and the Alien Invasion is just so tedious that it kills any motivation I had left.
Yes, that is the sad New Candy Crush of 2025โฆ..boredom. Please could you say which version of end of episode levels you do get in Alien Invasion? I haven't played it yet myself. Do you have a screenshot of one such level? How far did you get and how much gold did you end up with?
Sure:
Basically Alien Invasion
They are a terrible mechanic.
That being said I might try one more game since we have an new event. It will be paying to pass levels. See if I can get farther than low 1000s before hitting the 800th brick wall HAHA. They way they changed the game makes hammer play almost useless now as they are do not do much one item left, it is usually 2 or 3 now.
Also maybe I will get a game where the Alien invasion does NOT exist, so my 30 min free hammers are not broken and Top that does not start at 00:00:00

@ForumPyrolight Another question: When do the colours revert back to normal? I'm playing and playing and am up to level 128 now and there is no purple candy in sight! I remember I've had a game with those garish bright blues/yellows/reds before, but don' t they turn back to normal at some point?
I had yellows and reds in my game until I reached level 200, Christine. A lot to go ๐
Glad MannyFae had the answer, I only had one game with reversed colors and I only had taken it to 51.
Thanks!
I've finally made it now. I was never so glad to see level 200!
That is worse than I had thought! I hope I won' t see this event in my new game. It is so the worst event ever and they keep bringing it back in a new disguise. I don't get it that players put up with it and we hardly hear any complaints. I tried turning the date back to before the event started once to get rid of one of those snowstorm levels. The game did let me pass the normal level version, but there is no way to get rid of this event. It will bounce straight back when you reset the right date and of course messing with the date will wreak havoc with your other events and the Lantern thing would disappear, so we just have to grin and bear it I guess.
The alien invasion is pretty ugly. If you can get a lot of downward stripes, you can often cut through it, and some of the levels have those in significant quantities.
I found that a double super color bomb cuts through these levels pretty well, so I almost always match two color bombs, and if I have superchargers it's generally easy. Otherwise it's usually pretty bad.
You have just added evidence to what I've been speculating about all the recent changes in the game: Candy Crush is being rewritten in order to incorporate the super colour bomb. King want players to use this new feature and I think chances are it is here to stay in 2025. It does at the same time also mean that keeping your win streak, outside of Candy Royale, is becoming much more of a "thing" in the game than it used to be. It's a clever way to get people to part with their money and for King to control the game. Personally I choose to fight back and I ignore the super colour bomb. If it goes, so be it. Those levels we are meant to fail on our first attempt, the "thou shall not pass" ones, the super colour bombs do nothing to help whatsoever. And most of the other levels you can pass without them. So chances are good that the Alien invasion levels are meant to sell the benefits of the super colour bombs. Just a shame that these levels replace levels that players without the event can pass with no boosters.
